525 Perugia Way, Bel Air, Los Angeles, California?

 

During the filming of "Harum Scarum", Jerry Schilling bought a Triumph 650 motorcycle and Elvis was inspired to purchase a

fleet of cycles, one for each of the guys. When Bel Air residents complained about the noise, Elvis simply transported the

bikes by trailer to and from the entrance of the gated community.

RCA issued their latest Gold Standard Elvis single in time for the Easter period: "Crying in the Chapel"/"I Believe in the Man in the Sky" (RCA 447-0643).

"Crying in the Chapel" was a hit for the Orioles back in 1953. Elvis recorded it back in October 1960 but it was suprisingly excluded from the album "His Hand In Mine". "I Believe in the Man in the Sky" was included. The front cover of the single used a publicity shot from the movie "Girl Happy" and the rear sleeve promoted both Elvis' 1960 sacred album; "His Hand in Mine" and his 1957 sacred extended play; "Peace in the Valley"

Songs: "Crying in the Chapel"/"I Believe in the Man in the Sky"

The record industry reacted very positively to RCA's introduction of the new Lear eight-track stereo cartridge tape system. The tapes could be used to provide music for the inhabitants in a car whose industry was enjoying a bit of a boom in sales. Lear Stereo, a part of the Lear Jet Corporation hoped to fill it's initial RCA order of one million units by September.
